課文詳注  Further notes on the text

1．Last week I went to the theatre.上星期我去看戲。

（1）句首的“Last week”點明敘述的事情發(fā)生的時間是上星期。因此整篇課文的時態(tài)基本上應是過去時（包括過去進行時），直接引語部分的時態(tài)除外。

（2）動詞go的原義是離開一個地方去另一個地方，與介詞to連用后，常加上主語所要去的目的地來代表主語的動作目的。課文中g(shù)o to the theatre = go to the theatre to see a play，即去劇場看戲。類似的還有g(shù)o to the cinema = go to the cinema to see a film（去電影院看電影）。這種表達方式簡明扼要。請注意在以下的短語中名詞前通常不加冠詞：

go to school上學

go to bed上床，睡覺

go to church上教堂，去做禮拜(cf．第1冊第68課at school, at church；第1冊第85課have been to school/church)

2．had a very good seat，座位很好。

seat一般指戲院、汽車等配置的固定座位，也可以抽象地表示“座位”或“位子”的概念：

the front seat of a car汽車的前座

Take a seat, please.

請坐。

3．The play was very interesting. 戲很有意思。

interesting屬于現(xiàn)在分詞形式的形容詞，意思是“使人感興趣”。

它通常與非人稱主語連用或修飾某個事物：

This is an interesting book/idea.

這是一本有趣的書／一個令人感興趣的主意。

4．…were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly.……坐在我的身后，大聲地說著話。

這兩句的時態(tài)為過去進行時。（cf．第7課語法）

5．I got very angry. 我非常生氣。

get在這里有“逐漸變得”的含義，接近become，是個表示過程的動詞，表示狀態(tài)的變化。而I was very angry則僅表示當時的狀態(tài)是生氣，并不暗示過程。

6．in the end, 最后，終于。

表示一段較長的時間之后或某種努力之后：

She tried hard to finish her homework by herself. In the end, she had to ask her brother for help.

她試圖自已完成家庭作業(yè)，但最后她不得不請她兄弟幫忙。

7．none of your business, 不關(guān)你的事。

（1） sb. 's business指某人（所關(guān)心的或份內(nèi)）的事：

It is my business to look after your health.

我必須照顧你的身體健康。

This is none of his business.

這根本不關(guān)他的事。

（2）表示否定的代詞none意義上相當于not any或no one，但語氣較強：

She kept none of his letters.

他的信件她一封也沒有保留。

None of my friends left early.

我的朋友沒有一個早離開的。

none of這個短語有時可以表達一種斷然、甚至粗暴的口氣，

尤其是在祈使句中：

None of your silly remarks!

別說傻話了！

8．a(chǎn) private conversation，私人間的談話。

在西方文化中人們對private（私人的，個人的）這個概念很看重。這個詞的名詞形式privacy有“隱私（權(quán)）”的意思。所以課文中的小伙子會振振有詞地說“This is a private conversation!”不過他忘了他是在一個public place（公眾場合），而且他們的說話聲太大，已經(jīng)影響了別人。

語法 Grammar in use

簡單陳述句的語序(Word order in simple statements)

主語一般為名詞、代詞或名詞短語，通常位于動詞之前。動詞必須與主語“一致”，所以主語決定動詞的單復數(shù)形式（如I am, you are, he has）。賓語一般為名詞、代詞或名詞短語。在主動句中，賓語一般位于動詞之后。一個句子不總需要有賓語。狀語的位置比較靈活。當一個句子里有一種以上的副詞時，地點副詞的一般位置是在方式副詞之后、時間副詞之前，如上面的最后一個例句。時間狀語可以在句尾，也可以在句首：

Last night Lucy went to the theatre.

昨晚露西去劇院看戲了。

I heard a voice at the door just now.

我剛才聽到門口有聲音。

Sam listened to the story quietly.

薩姆靜靜地聽著故事。

The man ran away quickly.

那人很快跑掉了。（無賓語）
